Arbois Ploussard "La Cabane" 2023
Arbois Ploussard "La Cabane" 2023 from Domaine de la Touraize is a pure and expressive natural red wine from Jura. Made from Poulsard grapes grown on blue marl soils across 1.5 hectares of 30-year-old vines, this wine follows a low-intervention approach: manual destemming, spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts for 10 days in vats, without punch-downs, only cap wetting. Fermentation finishes in wooden vats and the wine is aged for 7 months in 20 hl barrels, concrete eggs, and vats of the same size. Bottled unfiltered, unfined, and with no added sulfites (total SO₂: 20 mg/l).
Visually light and translucent as expected from Ploussard, the 2023 vintage surprises with more depth, reflecting the warm growing season. Aromas move from bright red fruit to darker berries, hints of smoke, bay leaf, rosemary, dry hay, and pepper. On the palate, it’s crunchy and juicy, with a fresh yet soft mouthfeel and a graceful, almost feminine character. A highly drinkable, intriguing red for lovers of authentic Jura wines.
Limited production: 10,000 bottles.
